Thomas examined three female syntypes in MFNB and so did the first author. Nevertheless, the specimen listed above is mentioned by Germar in the original description (“Specimen possideo, reliquis simillimum, sed antennae rufae, articulis apice nigris, ventris spina usque ad pede [sic!] anticos porrecta, compressa, apice falcata; an hujus mas?”). Although it was marked as type, we do not consider it a syntype as it was only dubiously associated to the type series. Our reply to Germar’s question is positive; it is the male of the species.</p>Published as part of <i>Roell, Talita, Lemaître, Valérie A., Webb, Michael D. & Campos, Luiz A., 2023, An annotated and illustrated Type Catalogue of the predacious Shieldbugs (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Pentatomidae: Asopinae) in the Collection of the Natural History Museum, London, pp. 1-105 in Zootaxa 5232 (1)</i> on page 60, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5232.1.1, <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/7609794">http://zenodo.org/record/7609794</a>
Molecular identification of Proutista moesta as the vector and the phylogenetic analysis of KWD phytoplasma
No full text560-563The purified genomic DNA from the tissues of Proutista moesta and Stephanitis typica, considered as possible vectors of Kerala wilt disease (KWD) of coconut palm, was subjected to PCR assay using the primer pairs P1/P6, P1/P7 and P4/P7. In case of P. moesta, the amplified products resolved a prominent band of 650 bp for the universal primer pair P4/P7; however, no bands were noticed for the primer pairs P1/P6 and P1/P7. In case of S. typica no bands were noticed for all sets of primers. Since P4/P7 amplifies the 16S-23S intergenic spacer region of 16SrRNA gene, the 650 bp product from P. moesta indicates the presence of phytoplasma DNA. The restriction enzyme analysis of the 650 bp product, using the enzymes AluI, BclI, HindIII and RsaI, further supports the phytoplasmic nature of DNA. The presence of 650 bp product in the genomic DNA of P. moesta shows the insect being a vector of KWD phytoplasma. The sequential similarity of 650 bp of both KWD phytoplasma and the insect phytoplasma again supports the transmission of phytoplasma through the vector P. moesta. From the cladogram, it is obvious that the KWD phytoplasma is evolutionarily closest to the phytoplasma causing coconut lethal yellowing of Mexican palms within the group 16SrIV.The present study is the fist confirmed record of P. moesta as the vector of KWD by detecting KWD phytoplasma in the insect tissues by PCR based methods

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
